My name is Joan McMillan and this blog is, as Emily Dickinson says, "my letter to the world." I am currently working on a nonfiction book about the murder of a young woman, Asha Veil, born Joanna Dragunowicz, and her unborn daughter, Anina, on September 9, 2006. My book is meant to honor her life and illuminate the need to create a safer world for women and children.

Hurricane Katrina--appalling
I am heartbroken for everyone affected directly or indirectly by the Hurricane Katrina disaster. I don't even have the words to express how I feel--the neglect of the survivors of this disaster by our federal govenment is appalling. I am donating to the Red Cross today (our tiny video store in Felton has a donation station). I have been reading the news (don't usually watch TV) and my heart breaks over and over.
